Acadiana residents announce the opening of a local chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. A chapter launch party and membership drive will be held at the Lafayette Public Library in downtown Lafayette on September 10, 2015 from 5-6:30 pm.
The local chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America was created in response to the spate of tragic gun deaths that have affected our community in recent months. It seeks to bring together the citizens of Acadiana who have been affected by gun violence so that, together, we can work to rebuild a stronger community as we help one another mourn the loss of our loved ones. The organization welcomes all men and women interested in joining.
